The space
Cliff House
Main/Ground Floor:
Welcome to the Cliff House, where every moment begins with breathtaking 80-foot granite cliff views that change like living art throughout the seasons. The heart of this extraordinary home features a sunken living room with floor-to-ceiling windows spanning the entire quarry-facing wall, creating an immersive theater of natural beauty where towering cliffs serve as your ever-changing backdrop.
The gourmet kitchen opens seamlessly into the dining area, which flows into the sunken living room, creating one immense gathering space where families and friends can cook, dine, and relax together while taking in those stunning cliff views. Two guest bedrooms - one with a queen bed and one with a king bed - are connected by a private foyer and can be closed off to create a spacious double-room suite with shared full bathroom, perfect for families or friends seeking added privacy.
A convenient laundry room on this level doubles as an organized mudroom, featuring plenty of hooks and cubbies to keep coats, shoes, and gear neatly stored and easily accessible.
Step onto the screened porch directly off the kitchen, where you can dine al fresco while overlooking your private hot tub and the dramatic quarry waters that mirror the magnificent cliffs above. Whether it's autumn's fiery colors painting the granite walls, winter's spectacular ice formations cascading down the stone faces, or spring's powerful waterfalls thundering from the cliff tops, every season offers a completely different and unforgettable vista.
Second Floor:
The crown jewel of Cliff House awaits upstairs - a luxurious master suite with a king bed, walk-in closet, and an indulgent spa-like bathroom featuring a custom marble-top jetted tub and custom-tiled glass door shower. A ceiling-level window allows you to soak in the tub while peeking at nature above, maintaining complete privacy while connecting you to the outdoors. French doors open from the bedroom to your own private balcony, where you can wake to sunrise illuminating the historic granite walls or enjoy evening cocktails as the uplighting transforms the cliffs into a dramatic nighttime spectacle.
The magical children's room is accessed through a secret bookcase door filled with stories and adventures. Inside, twin bunk beds sit beneath a skylight, allowing little ones to fall asleep under the stars. The room is stocked with toys and includes a crib, creating the perfect family retreat with that whimsical touch kids will never forget.
Walkout Basement Level:
Your entertainment kingdom occupies the lower level, featuring a spacious game room equipped with a pool table, darts, air hockey, classic arcade games, and a private movie theater - perfect for family tournaments or relaxing film nights with the cliffs as your backdrop through the walkout windows.
The expansive family suite sleeps up to five guests with two king beds and one twin bed, all sharing a convenient 3/4 bathroom. French doors from this suite open directly onto the back deck, allowing guests to wake up to those incredible quarry and cliff views right from their beds - imagine starting each morning with 80-foot granite walls reflected in crystal-clear waters just steps from your bedroom.
French doors lead from the basement directly onto the back deck, where a patio dining table and BBQ grill create the perfect setup for outdoor entertaining. Additional storage completes this level, ensuring all practical needs are met without compromising the magical atmosphere.
Private Landscaped Yard & Quarry Access:
Step into your own stone-age paradise, where thoughtfully landscaped gardens are illuminated by uplighting that highlights both the natural beauty and the dramatic cliff backdrop towering above. The entire length of the granite stone-lined backyard sits directly at the quarry's edge, meaning you can plunge into the crystal-clear waters at any moment from virtually anywhere along the yard.
Uplit pathways guide you through this masterpiece of stone artistry to multiple gathering spaces designed for unforgettable evenings. Off to the right, a wood-burning campfire pit is surrounded by massive rough-cut granite benches arranged in a perfect stone circle - like a prehistoric gathering place where stories are shared under star-filled skies. Throughout the yard, built-in stone couches are carved directly into the landscape, offering comfortable seating that feels both primitive and unique.
To the left, beneath a beautifully lit birch tree, a gas fire pit sits on a custom granite stone patio with curved round seating for all 11 guests - instant warmth and ambiance at the touch of a button for effortless entertaining.
For water adventures, a floating dock is tied up and loaded with paddle boards and kayaks for exploring the quarry's expansive 2+ acres of pristine waters that plunge over 60 feet deep. The unique "Whale's Tail" granite sculpture sits perched at the water's edge, while two underwater steps allow you to soak and relax in the water without needing to swim - perfect with the provided life jackets for safe water enjoyment.
This isn't just a backyard - it's an outdoor living masterpiece where every element has been carefully crafted from the same historic granite that built America's monuments, creating an experience that seamlessly blends adventure, relaxation, and natural wonder.

The Cliff House Experience:
What makes Cliff House truly indescribable is how the 80-foot granite cliffs transform throughout the day and seasons.
